burleygirl

So one of my Christmas presents from Stephen was a bike trailer. He placed the order from REI and it was backordered, then they said they wouldn't be getting any more after all - must be a model change. They had a floor model, but it was missing a part. So we went in to the store to check out what else they had.
Have you ever been to REI in January? They have the best sale. All their sale stuff goes down another 50%. Turns out they sell the missing part to that floor model, so they gave it to us for free, and we got a $550 bike trailer for $179. SWEET! It also converts to a regular stroller, jogging stroller, and even a cross-country skiing trailer. I don't think we'll use the skiing thing, but it's nice to think that we could. Kiddo seems to like riding in it, but is not a fan of the helmet.

Awesome deal! I share your love for garage sales too, although I supplement my treasure hunting at garage sales by browsing the online garage sale known as "craigslist." :o)

The Burley sounds just like the Chariot that we have for Kaia. It is awesome. Congrats on a sweet deal.
